More changes at CBS Interactive: Anthony Soohoo, senior vice president and general manager of entertainment for CBS Interactive, is departing.

This follows the announcement last week of Jim Lanzone becoming the new president of CBS Interactive -- and CBS' purchase of Lanzone's entertainment guide site, Clicker.com.

Soohoo -- who is leaving CBS after a three-year stint -- championed CBS Interactive's efforts to syndicate CBS television, video and other content to a wide range of Internet areas under the CBS Audience Network. This project was vastly different than other TV network-centric companies -- NBC Universal, News Corp. and Walt Disney -- which banded together in a partnership mostly under one big video site, Hulu.com, for their premium TV shows.

In a memo released announcing his departure, which was in talks over the last eight months, Soohoo touts some major accomplishments:

CBS Interactive increased revenue by 700% during a three-year period. He also notes that CBS.com increased its audience 10 times during that stretch, and that it moved up to the third-ranked network video site, and top network property during the last 27 months.

Soohoo also says CBS Audience Network became the fastest-growing network ramping up video streams this past year by 206% and total minutes spent by 149%.

Lanzone took the place of Neil Ashe, who left the top post at CBS Interactive at the end of last year.
